I have had a question burning in my mind for a while. I have heard that once you get out so far (30+ yards) that the deer will not jump the string. I have also heard from some people that 20 yards is the perfect reaction distance for a whitetail to hear the bow and react to the shot. With these two statements, it makes sense that a longer shot would result in less reaction from a deer.

For all of you that have shot deer at further distances, what has been your experience? I have yet to shoot a deer past 25 yards and cannot put this to my own test.

Thanks for your time,

Trent
